"Specifically, the legislation declares:
Although the several states have granted supremacy to laws and treaties made pursuant to the powers granted in the Constitution, such supremacy does not extend to various federal
statutes, executive orders, administrative orders, court orders, rules, regulations, or other actions which restrict or prohibit the manufacture, ownership, and use of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition exclusively within the borders of Missouri; such statutes, executive orders, administrative orders, court orders, rules,
regulations, and other actions exceed the powers granted to the federal government. The authors of this bill understand the limitations of the so-called Supremacy Clause of Article VI of the Constitution.
Despite what many in the mainstream press (including many “conservatives”) claim, the Supremacy Clause does not declare that federal laws automatically trump state laws without qualification. What
it says is that the Constitution "and laws of the United States made in pursuance thereof" are the supreme law of the land."
